I have a complex sequence $a_n=(i-1)^n\frac{n!}{n^n}$ which I would like to find the radius of convergence of. I have tried using the ratio test $$\lim_{n \to \infty} |\frac{a_{n+1}}{a_n}|=\lim_{n \to \infty} |\frac{(i-1)^{n+1}(n+1)!/((n+1)^{n+1})}{(i-1)^n(n!/n^n)}|$$ which reduces to $$\lim_{n \to \infty} (i-1)\frac{n...
